I think this may well be just the beginning of new epidemics
I had measles as a child and came thru just fine (as did my brother)..... tho I know it can be a
very serious and deadly illness.
Both my kids were fully vaccinated
but
I understand why so many parents have been opting out because of the vaccines being possibly implicated in autism and other neurological illnesses.
It's a hard issue for many as on the one hand there is the risk of horrid diseases but on the other the risk of other severe harm from the vaccines themselves
I cant find the link right now but there was a recent report that the FDA are taking this possible connection seriously and investigating..........
here is a recent article by David Kirby on the topic

I am real thankful my kids are grown now as I honestly dont know what I would do based on the extensive info I have gained on this subject over the past 8 years since my son's dx with Tourette
the dilemma will no doubt arise if I am blessed to be a grandma
very very hard!!
anyway, I just wanted to give the other perspective on this
